Sakai's counselors are available to work with
students, staff and parents on any issue or concern that may affect a
student’s ability to focus on schoolwork. Our goal is to support all students
of all abilities as they strive to achieve social, emotional and academic
success. We want Sakai students to feel safe, encouraged, and cared for.
 |
We work with students individually to provide emotional support and/or
guidance. |
|
We offer small groups during the school year for students who
experience similar concerns, such as family change, grief or loss, coping with
anger and frustration, or drug/alcohol issues. Participation in these groups is
based on expressed interest and requires parent permission. We also work
individually with students, staff and parents to problem solve school concerns
such as adjusting to transitions, or coping with challenging social or emotional
situations. |
|
We do classroom presentations on bullying and harassment
and coordinate school-wide activities such as "No Name Calling
Week", new student orientation, |
|
We work with families to help them understand the unique
academic, social and emotional needs of their child. |
|
We are available by phone or e-mail - please feel free to
contact us at any time.. |
